FRANCE-CRIME-KURDS-TURKEY-PROTEST

ERIC FEFERBERG

Hundreds of people of Kurdish origin take part in a demonstration on January 12, 2013 in Paris, two days after three Kurdish women were found shot dead at Paris Kurdistan Information Bureau. Thousands of Kurds from all over Europe are expected in Paris today for what is expected to be an angry protest over the killing of three female activists shot dead at least three times in the head, giving further credence to the theory of an execution-style hit. Kurdish activists have accused Turkey or rogue nationalist elements in the country's military of being behind the killings. AFP PHOTO / ERIC FEFERBERG

The Rio government promised to clean 80 percent of pollution and waste from the nearby Guanabara Bay in time for the games but admits that goal now is unlikely to be reached. August 5 marks the one-year mark to the start of the Rio 2016 Olympic Games.
